[Guest guest]

I've been out of it for a while, haha, but here's us in the news, enjoy:).

Many different lps, different stories, everything, in NO particular order.

Meet , a Silver lp gymnast, with pics, and actually

this is one of the few articles today that has them.

awareness combo function for him. The articles have no pics, but Levi

Another RSS lp, but one who's not faring so well, as she and her mum

are seeking a new flat (apartment), because she is in a wheelchair

which makes it hard living currently in a third floor one.

Meet Chloe Hale:), who I wanna say I think I've posted on her before

as her name sounds sooo familiar to me, but I'm not sure. Nonetheless,

here's a new article on her. Doctor is also mentioned in the

article as well:).

Now, I'm not sure believe if this is news, although it did come up on

Google as a news item, because it reads more like a blog to me...

still, it's beautiful:). It's of one of our own and his family. I also

believe it's a series thing too, as there are chapters. The first 2

chapters are posted here, now I am sure they are more but Google

hasn't spit them up... yet:P.

I think you know him (and his family) very well on here;).

Silly news:P, but true, an ap reporter spent his time, and he must

have a lots of it:D, trying to prove the following was an urban legend

and not fact. Ya know, the one about the German 'shorty' lp who was in

the trunk (boot) of a car to determine the rattling sound that came

from that end, which then some ap lady mistook the lp as a kidnapped

ap kid who then frantically reported such to the police who then set

up a roadblocks and all to intercept the car... well, it was true.

It really did happened. In yer face reporter! haha;)

Meet the McCoys who adopt kids, some with special needs, one of whom

is an lp. There is a photo slide show, but I didn't go thru all of

them in great detail to find the lp, if they were in any of them,

the pics, to begin with.

An Indian lp talks (briefly) about his life in the circus. Scroll down

to: Md. Afdar, which is his name.

An ap author, Ursula Hegi, whose previous (1994) novel, ' " Stones From

the River, " (which is) a magical, nightmarish tale of Germany during

both world wars as seen through the eyes of the ultimate outsider,

(has) a dwarf named, Trudi Montag.'

I only include this as I know there are some readers on here who are

interested with any or all books that have an lp character in it, be

them real or fictional. So, this is one book that may be in print

still, for those who might be interested in such.

For those who like to collect all things Barty,

Meet Dusty:), an lp athlete, who stands 52 inches or more specifically

in the old standard American English measure:P, 4'4 " tall.

http://tinyurl.com/38x84z

Now, I am not 100% sure if the following gentleman is an lp, but I

think he is one. It's just the vid of him on the article link took

forever to come up, so I gave up on it.

Meet Madelynn:), a Primordial lp, and her family who are hosting a

fund raiser too.

http://tinyurl.com/2h75ll

Meet , another RSS lp, and her brother, , who I also

think is RSS but I read it sooo fast cuz of my compiling everything

here that I'm 100% not sure. They and their mom are in an article

about an upcoming walk (now past) for the M.A.G.I.C. (Major Aspects

of Growth In Children) Foundation sponsored by The Families Helping

Families org. If you are interested in those 2 groups there are links

and contact points for both on the news article link as well.

Meet Rhonda:), a teen mom only 16 years old, I kid you not, toughing

it out, so to speak, working now, for her daughter, Isabella Grace:),

who has Tuner's Syndrome. Pray for both of them, as one of my sisters

was once a teen mom herself, and it is TOUGH. Sometimes you feel it's

just you and yer kid, all alone.

Car show/fundraiser for Progeria and for those affected by it is a big

success, and if you watch Overhaulin'-the TV show that (usually)

restores muscle cars superbly, I must add, then you will know who was

one of the major driving forces behind it all, you guess it,

Chip Foose:).

There are 2 articles, the second one has a pic of Chip and his sister,

Amy, who was only 37 inches tall and 26 pounds when she passed away

from that condition. Seeing the pic made me wanna cry as you see his

love for his sister:).

1st article: http://tinyurl.com/2maw25

2nd article: http://tinyurl.com/2ufyh8

" It's no tall story, a few extra inches can make all the difference in

life. " I only include this, as one commenter actually posted this

super long poem, which I'm assuming he wrote, about being beautiful

and all whether one is tall or small.
